Reading
Put together from what the tradition attributes to each body, sign and house — a portrait to enjoy, not a verdict. The positions beside it are the part that can be checked.
☉ Sun in Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 1 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 1
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In bearing and first impression.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 4
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 9 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.01°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.14°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.48°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.60°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.68°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.77°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
